Summary Introduction

To review:

The outcome of the plateau phase that is generated during the action potential of the contractile cell.

Introduction:

About 99% of the atrium of the heart and the ventricles iscomposed of the contractile cells. The contractile cells are required for the contraction of heart ventricles, so that the blood can be supplied to different body parts. The action potential that takes place in the contractile cells is characterized by the presence of a plateau phase that occurs due to the entry of calcium ions inside the cell.

The diagram below illustrates a quorum sensing pathway from Staphylococcus aureus. Please answer the following questions. 1. Autoinduction is part of the quorum sensing system. Which promoter (P2 or P3) is critical for autoinduction? 2)This staphylococcus aureus grows on human wounds, causing severe infections. You would like to start a clinical trial to treat these wound infections. Please describe: a) What molecule do you recommend for the trial. Why? b) Your trial requires that Staphylococcus aureus be isolated from the wound and submitted to genome sequencing before admittance. Why? What are you testing for?  3) If a mutation arises where the Promoter P3 is constitutively active, how would that influence sensitivity to AIP? Please explain your rationale. 4) This pathway is sensitive to bacterial cell density. Describe two separate mutation that would render the pathway active independent of cell density. Briefly explain your rationale. Mutation 1 Mutation 2
